    I got my bucket seats in last week I forgot to post it. I used the measurements I found on here, the thing I did differently is I took the 4 bolts that held the Oldsmobile seats in and welded them to 4 3inch long pieces of angle iron. I used this setup to bolt the seats down and give plenty of...

    Here’s my 98’ c2500 i impulse bought because it runs on gasoline and compressed natural gas. I daily drove it for years then it sat for a year when I switched to my 01’ 1500hd. Last year I did a Tommy Lift Gate install and now it’s my work truck/2nd daily driver. I put a diesel bumper and a 4wd...

    Lets see them 8 lugs!! 2500-3500 Photo thread!

    My 98 c2500 5.7 4l80e with factory compressed natural gas. It’s my work truck, my tow rig, and one of 2 daily drivers I have. I pulled the grille out to restore and put my 90 grille in for the time being.

    96 tilt wheel column swapped into a 98 without tilt?

    Thankfully my truck is a non airbag truck.

    96 tilt wheel column swapped into a 98 without tilt?

    I’ll keep an eye out for a 98 column. Thankfully my truck is not an airbag truck so I don’t have to worry about that.

    96 tilt wheel column swapped into a 98 without tilt?

    That’s kinda what I expected but I had hoped to be wrong.

    96 tilt wheel column swapped into a 98 without tilt?

    I know people have asked about column swaps but I can’t find any info on this. I remember a gm tech was telling me years ago that 98 was the first or around the first year for passlock. My 98 has a solid non tilt column but I have a 96 parts truck with a nice column in it. My question is will it...

    I saw several there but this was the only one that matched the seats so I grabbed it. What is awesome is a console is only $15. Seats are pretty affordable too, $33 no power and $45 power.

    88-98 Bucket seat alternatives

    I just installed them. I had seen that the holes on one side of the seat need to be redrilled 1/4 inch further out. This caused the seat to be very slightly off center but it would not to noticeable for most people, I didn’t realize that I sat towards the center on the bench until yesterday so I...

    After a week of driving I remember how much I hated stacking everything in the seat so I decided to finally do a bucket seat and console conversion. I pulled the grille out to restore it and just for fun I swapped my 90 grille in. After way to much time looking around and passing up several...

    So my c2500 sat in the driveway for a while. I decided to pull the PYOs off and put them back on the 1500hd and slapped on some rollers. Later I bought another set of PYOs for $100 and swapped them on. I cleaned out all the junk that collected and started driving it again. This was the last day...

    That’s what Dad said. I originally wanted to run a set of D windows so it would have a stock car look. I’ll probably swap on a few different sets because I get bored with my vehicles and have to change them up.

    The 55’ needed some brake work and some wheels and tires. I had to haul it to town and when I got back I decided it would be easier to do the brakes on the trailer. I rounded up a set of oe 55’ wheels but 2 had severe rot in the rim so I rehooped them with wider rims to run on the rear. I ran...

    88-98 Bucket seat alternatives

    I’ve noticed over the years gm has a lot of interchangeable parts across several different platforms. I’m going to disassemble a set of s10 seats that are not in good shape and see if the recliner hinges will swap on. If it works awesome if not at least I’ll know if won’t work. I may be able to...

    88-98 Bucket seat alternatives

    I finally picked up a set of buckets to swap in my c2500 standard cab. I remember reading in here somewhere that Malibu/ olds cutless seats will work so I picked up these. I picked up 2 sets of bench seat risers to use so let’s see how it goes. I’ll post pictures and info on how it went when I...

    We got the bed swapped today. I kinda like the Isuzu wheel wells. I am gonna see if I can find a set of the low profile crew cab s10 rear fender flares because those have Isuzu beds factory.

    Got the front end done on the Sonoma but I had to get creative with the bumper cover it had broken side clips. Then today I picked up a temporary bed to use till my bed or my new bed is done. I used quick latches to hold the bumper cover on.It’s an izusu so the wheel openings are a little...

    Drove the Sonoma last night around the block. This thing is a great little truck. It feels strange being in something other than a gmt400, gmt800, or a square body but it should be good on gas.

    Finally made some progress on my Sonoma this weekend. The bumper brackets are straight now. We got the core support changed and my new headlights and hood on. Next we will repaint the hood grille and bumper cover. After that the bed damage will be straightened. The dent has been in the bed since...
